FAQ

About Placing Orders

My order didn’t go through. Why did I get charged?
If your order doesn’t go through, your bank may still “authorize” the amount of the transaction. In these circumstances you have NOT been charged, though the authorized amount may appear on your online card statement as “pending”. This means that your bank will “hold” the amount of the transaction temporarily. If you do not see “pending” or “authorized” and are concerned that you have been charged for an incomplete transaction, please contact your card issuer.

Unfortunately, we have no control over how credit card issuers process pending/failed transactions. If we can provide supporting information for an inquiry you wish to make to your credit card issuer, please email us at: sonnyangel_info@sonnyangelusa.com
I placed an order, but I haven't received an automated reply.
If you do not get an email from us within 5 minutes after order, you may have entered an incorrect email address or not completed your order. Please contact us via the contact form.

To Apple Pay customers: Please note that when placing an order using Apple Pay, a separate account will automatically be created under the email address, billing and shipping information associated with your Apple Pay account. We are unable to merge separate accounts, so please keep this in mind when using Apple Pay.
I want to add, change or cancel my order.
Please reach out to us via the contact us form and include your order number.
